Diabetes honeybee APRN-C

AI has some good uses. I’ll admit it. But every time I see an AI generated picture or art it feels like my eyes have been assaulted.

I miss my 50-year streak of not knowing who the Secretary of Health is or anything about them.

I wish things were at least less stupid if they had to be so dire

It’s amazing how much better my water tastes after washing my yeti’s straw for the first time in more than weeks less than months.

Just me over here contemplating the number of times I’ve applied or re-applied lipstick or lipgloss is likely over 35,000 times in the last 30 years and how that likely means I’ve eaten all of it. 💄💋😋😭

'I don't believe in insulin': Granddaughter killed diabetic grandma with 'prayer' regimen A Wisconsin woman was sentenced to nine months in prison and probation for swapping out her diabetic grandma's insulin for supplements and "prayers." Prosecutors had asked for more than half a decade.

I see this every day in the hospital. People not believing in the most basic of healthcare. The morbidity and mortality is staggering to contemplate.

Too weird for the normies and too normal for the weirdies.

If you are looking to spend like $600 as fast as humanly possible no better way than “going to the vet” (dog is fine this was just a checkup plus her many poisonous vaccines)

Now that Disney owns Fox, which means they own the Alien franchise, I can't stop thinking about how the Alien Queen is now a Disney Princess/Queen.

I need the particular part I love about each of my 6 pairs of different brand black leggings to mold together to form the one true legging to rule them all. And be less than $50 please

I ate McDonalds in a pinch the other night when everything around was closed. I didnt overeat there either. I literally have not felt right for 2 days.

the new morning routine

-- feed cat
-- make coffee
-- get totally freaked out by the news

they call it "crypto" because every time i hear about it i wish i was dead

The news this morning (and it seems every morning): here’s this thing that wasn’t perfect but was showing improvement. Now here’s how it’s being completely destroyed x6 segments/hr with some headlines and a five minute piece about a book or artist to sprinkled in. Repeat.

my favorite film genre is "Hong Kong detective teams up with undercover cop to shoot five hundred gangsters in one night inside a hospital"

People have looked at me strangely when i've said that The Texas Chain Saw Massacre might be the best, most perfect American film ever made, but i'm right

Every day I listen to the news it’s new horrors. HORRORS. Every. Single. Day.

Being in my mid-forties I have to say I think one of my biggest accomplishments so far has been finding my one true cardigan

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

By severely cutting Medicaid, this is who will be impacted

Working in the hospital is wild. Walked by a deceased person being rolled down the hall via cart on my way in and a brand spanking new baby being rolled down the hall via cart on my way out.

No other medical interventions have been tested as rigorously as childhood vaccines have.

The #1 reported reason people avoid doctor’s appointments is because they’re afraid of finding out they have a serious illness.

Not me shedding tears watching Miss Congeniality, a movie I’ve seen 284744 times, in the middle of the nail salon #perimenopause

Listening to Cowboy Carter because that’s as close as I’m getting to the tour

it's so important to make time for yourself, rest, treat yourself gently and with kind words. you, not me, I have to run myself ragged until I collapse in a pile of exhausted self-hatred but you should definitely self care.

Just learned from NPR that the federal government is the largest employer in the great Kansas City area, for example. I found it helpful to be reminded that, of course, this isn’t just about people who work and live in DC. Federal employees are in all of our communities.
